Site Priv. issues

I have a main site. Everyone is a contributor. Now I just built a sub-site withthe permissions to inherit from the parent site. They are all contributors onboth sites now. On the sub-site they can't scroll down and see the drop downlists and boxes I need them to see.

Sorry I should have explained it better. I have a mainsite called A, andeveryone one had reader rights and some are admin, and even contributors. Nowoff site A I have a sub-site called B. Now here I have some databases restoreprocedures documented and since I am a admin I can see restore/move/ options/and help. Now all my users that can see site B with contrib. privs. can only seethe scroll down box that says help in it. I need them to see all of theseoptions. I switched them to web designer and know they can see everything, butthey could also delete and do stuff to the site?

Its always better to prefer creating site group and customize the rights andthen add the user community when dealing with this kind of restriction relatedaccess....

This way, you miminize overhead of managing users rather than adding then as'contributor; or 'web designer' or something else...

To create a site group:

-->_layouts/1033/role.aspxsite admin--> Manage site groups.

Create a group and customize the rights as u prefer and add users to it. Theninclude this group to the contents you prefer to access them. Before that, U gotto clean out the participants from manage users list...

The other workaround is to CUSTOMIZE the default 'web designer' access if youwish to do so..

Go to Manage site groups --> Click on 'web designer'

if not ---> /_layouts/1033/grpmbrs.aspx?role=Web%20Designer

Click on 'Edit site group permission'

or --- > _layouts/1033/editrole.aspx?role=Web%20Designer

and change what you need to do....

But plz remember, all the web designers will get this level of permissionswhile editing the default permission.
